Impact of Marine Pollution Threats and Conservation of Marine Biodiversity
Abstract: Ocean occupies 71% of earth’s surface and is traditionally divided into four large basins including North and South Atlantic, North and South Pacific, Arctic and Indian oceans. In India we have a vast coastal area of 7516.6 km from Kolkata to Gujarat and also many islands including Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep with vast fin and shellfish biodiversity. Human interference and both natural and artificial factors pose the biggest threat …

Comparative Study on Thermal Performance of Mud Rammed and Concrete Residential Building Envelope in Paro - Bhutan
Abstract: A key factor in assessing the total energy efficiency of a building is the thermal performance of the building envelope. In Bhutan the building energy sector accounts for 15% of the total domestic electricity consumption out of which 50 to 60% accounts for space heating in the temperate region. Previous research findings and data also indicate that heat loss or gain through the building envelop were the most significant contributor …

Phyto-Pharmacognostical Study of Zornia Gibbosa Span (Samyojaki)
Abstract: Recent survey shows that the plants extinction are occurring at rates hundreds of times higher than natural background rates, and 15,000 species of medicinal plants are now threatened. Under such circumstances the drugs which are abundantly available, common and cost-effective should be encouraged to control the extensive overuse of few classical drugs. Thus preventing them from verge of extinction and also reducing the chances of adulteration. Looking at the need …

Comparison of Indigenous-Based Edible Skin Coating Materials (SCMs) and Imported Wax (Citrashine®) on the Post-Harvest Quality and Shelf Life of (Citrus reticulata Blanco) Mandarins
Abstract: Pakistan is the largest mandarin producing and exporting country across the globe. All the wax used by the citrus industry of Pakistan is currently being imported costing a valuable foreign reserve. The Post-Harvest Research Center (PHRC), Faisalabad, Pakistan prepared two edible skin coating materials (SCMs) as an alternative to the imported wax. Therefore, this research was devised to compare the effects of these indigenous-based edible SCMs with those of an …

Standardization of Structural and Functional Brain Integration in Cannabis Users
Abstract: Cannabis is one of the most widely used and commercialized illegal drugs worldwide, notably amid young adults. The neurobiological mechanisms of cannabis, particularly in adolescents, have yet to be identified. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate a cohort of 73 cannabis users (aged 22–36years, 19 females) and his 73 healthy controls (aged 22–36, females). We observed some momentous differences in local structural/functional network measures (such as grade …

Assessing the Suitability of Piped Water Supply for Tanker-fed Villages By Using WaterGems
Abstract: The Drinking water security has become a challenge for the country, specially in rural areas. So it is necessary to use available sustainable resources to resolve the problem. Many parts of Maharashtra face severe drinking water shortage in spite of high rainfall lying typically in the range of 2000-3000 mm. Aurangabad district alone has more than 100 tanker-fed villages, majority of which are concentrated in Paithan taluka. This study covered …

Physiochemical Analysis of Rain Water and Surface Water Collected from Siltara Industrial Area, Raipur
Abstract: ABSTRACTA physicochemical analysis of rainwater collected from 04 station of the Siltara Industrial Area, Raipur was carried out during the months of May and June. The pH ranged from 6.20 to 6.80 whereas the acidity of water measured between 1.50 and 5.0 mg/L shows that there is a little bit of abnormal condition of environment in the industrial area here. The higher concentration of nitrate up to 0.25 mg/L has …

Structure and Cube Texture Development Trend of Al4.5MgMn Alloy at Variable Annealing Conditions
Abstract: Hot-rolled Al4.5MgMn alloy was cold rolled to true strain levels 0.8, 1.6 and 2.3. Annealing at 300°C, 350°C and 400 °C was done to develop annealing structure. The annealed structures were measured by SEM-EBSD. The average grain size and grain size distributions were measured using Sigma-scan-Pro 5 structure analysis software. The average grain size and grain size distributions showed higher number frequency of lower annealing grain size with the increase …

Use of Precipitation Data from Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 in the Forecasting of Floods in Assam
Abstract: Flood occurs most commonly from heavy rainfall but it can also result from storm surge associated with a tropical cyclone, a tsunami or a high tide coinciding with higher than normal river levels. Rainfall in the upstream of a river can also cause inundation in the downstream side of a river. Reliable and timely information is essential for appropriate flood management system. This paper explains the use of precipitation data …
